Ghost Quartet

Antipodes Theatre Company is thrilled to make their Sydney debut with Dave Malloy’s Ghost Quartet – an intoxicating musical odyssey about love, death and whiskey.

A camera breaks and four friends conjure spirits (both spectral and alcoholic) as they unravel four interwoven narratives spanning seven centuries: a warped fairy tale about two sisters and a treehouse astronomer; a retelling of Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher; a purgatorial intermezzo about Scheherazade and the ghost of Thelonious Monk; and a contemporary fable about a subway murder.

Inspired by source material as diverse as Arabian Nights and The Twilight Zone, Ghost Quartet is about the stories we choose to pass on, the versions of ourselves we choose to inhabit, and the healing power of music.

Featuring a cast of singer-musicians that includes CAMERON BAJRAKTAREVIC-HAYWARD (Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812) DAVID BUTLER (Love That For You), HANY LEE (Hamilton) and WILLOW SIZER (Guys and Dolls). This production of GHOST QUARTET previously had sold out seasons at Meat Market Stables (2021) and Gasworks Arts Park (2019).
